This is why I love my sleeve



Recommended Posts

I have been a bad girl during the holidays. I ate things I should not have and got way off plan. I have recommitted myself to following the plan starting the new year. I have been eating on plan ( and yes, it has been hard to get back on track) and moving more. In just a couple days I managed to not only get the couple pounds off I regained, I also managed to lose two additional pounds. I am at the year end goal I set for myself and only a few days late. This is why I love the sleeve. As long as I do what I am supposed to do I WILL lose the weight! Best desicion I ever made!

Same here, I've been eating like total crap lately and that was only compounded by the holidays. It took me a couple weeks to rebound but I did and I woke up today lighter than I've been in probably 20 years.

I do love my sleeve and the decision I made to get it.

Me too, lighter than in years. I do not know the actual last time I was this weight, but I would say at least 15+ years!

I'm with you! I ate with abandon too many Holiday goodies. Somehow managed to only gain 2 lbs. Got back on track Thursday and already dropped the 2 lbs. surprised at how quick that happened. Now onward to goal! I just have to keep reminding myself why I got the surgery and that it isn't a cure for my food addiction, just a really great tool to help me if I use it correctly. Taking part in the Valentine's Fay challenge which I hope will keep me motivated.

It's not hard to get off track. It does get harder the farther out you get. So develop healthy clean eating habits and always be on top of your game. We can do this, it takes making a habit out of it.... :P

Lol, I thought I was the only one who got a little off track. I did great until I made my grandmas snowball Cookies. Those things are evil lol

Anyway, I gained 2.5lbs. over the holidays, and have since taken double that off. I too am in love with my sleeve (and my new more powerful "good angel").

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
